Host Response

Chicken Response

  • Host Strain: white leghorn
  • Vaccination Protocol: Ten 30-day-old specific-pathogen-free (SPF) white leghorn chickens were immunized intramuscularly with 0.5 ml of purified IroN (0.05 mg/ml), homogenized with Freund's incomplete adjuvant, and 10 control chickens were immunized intramuscularly with PBS homogenized with Freund's incomplete adjuvant. The immunized chickens were given an intramuscular booster injection 3 wk after the first immunization (Kaneshige et al., 2009).
  • Challenge Protocol: Three weeks after the second injection, the immunized chickens and controls were challenged intravenously with 10^8 CFU of Salmonella Enteritidis (Kaneshige et al., 2009).
  • Efficacy: The mortality rate of immunized chickens was 10%, while that of control chickens was 80% (Kaneshige et al., 2009).
